placemats and cloth napkins and tea towels

My favorite part of perusing the Target clearance section? The linens shelf, hands down. Why, you might ask? Well, my friends, I can almost always find a stray placemat or tea towel or cloth napkin for a dollar or two in this lovely little section. And then, with the help of the creative geniuses of the internet, I can turn these little pieces of fabric into something gorgeous! Want a few reasons to start checking your friendly neighborhood’s Target clearance linen shelf (and the clearance section at Crate & Barrel, PB, etc.)???
